| Title III and Title V Status | UNC Charlotte is a Title III and Title V institution as determined by the U.S. Department of Education. This status is based on the financial profile of our students (high percentage of Pell grant-eligible students). For some programs at some sponsors, being a Title III institution allows us to check the “minority-serving” box. Examples are the Army Research Office and some programs at the U.S. Department of Education. For NSF and NIH we do not qualify as a minority-serving institution. The determination of whether we qualify as a minority-serving institution has to be made on a case-by-case basis by looking at the call for proposals, the sponsor’s policies, and sometimes the establishing legislation for the sponsor. |
